Court Strikes Maternity Policy
The United States Supreme
Court has struck down
regulations that force public
school teachers to leave their
jobs in the early months of
pregnancy. In a 7- 2 decision, the
court said that such regulations
take no account of a woman's
ability to work and violate the
14th amendment's guarantee of
due process of law.
The decision seems to nullify
the Farmingdale School Board's
policy of requiring expectant
teachers to begin unpaid leaves
of absence no later than the end
of the fourth month. The local
policy also states that the leave
will continue at least six months
after the birth of the child.
The maternity leave policy was
contested by several teachers to
the Division of Human Rights of
New York State. The policy was*
struck down by both the Division
and its appeal board. The school

Crisis Real
avits Senator Jacob K. Javits ( R-NY)
visited State University at
Farmingdale this past week to
present a " Report to the People."
The Report centered on two
questions - Is there really an
energy crisis? and, what can
your government officials do to
meet the problems posed by such
a crisis?
The answer to whether the
crisis is fact or fiction was an­swered
by the Sanator with a
resounding, " Yes." Expanding
on his answer, Sanator Javits
commented, " The fact i^ that we
have been using more energy
Invites Thieves
ilm^ EaiUCards
A Farmingdale man invited his
three robbers home to play cards
with him Friday night and at 2: 30
Saturday morning they relieved
him of $ 800.
According to 8th precinct police
the local resident, whose name. is
being withheld, met three men at
the Star Lite Lounge and about 11
p. m. invited them to his home for
a game of cards. At 2: 35 a. m. he
reported being robbed by them
Apparently, police said, the trio
threatened the victim with a
knife from his own kitchen.
Police also reported the home
at 3 Junard Drive. Farmingdale,
was, entered by a burglar bet­ween
noon and 1: 45 p. m. last
Thursday, A 19 inch color
television was reported missing.
Between 2: 45 and 9 p. m.'
Saturday, a burglar entered the
side door of the home at 92 Jef­ferson
St., Farmingdale, and took
a portable TV, stereo, clock radio
and $ 5 in silver coins.
than we have been able to «
produce domestically and,
therefore, • increased our
dependence on foreign supplies.
The sudden Arab oil embargo
( the difficult foreign supply
element) has thereby created a
temporary crisis. ' Foreign
suppliers' include the Arab oil
countries; and if their announced
total boycott is completely ef­fective,
it could mean an ef­fective
10 or 15 per cent cut in our
projected oil supplies."
Is the Arab boycott effective?
The answer, according to Senator
Javits is not known.
In exploring the second part of
his Report, " What can govern­ment
officials do to meet these
problems?,''.,. Senator Javits
believes that with knowledge,
research and capital, the facts on
energy must be freely given to
the Administration and the
Congress so they may cooperate
in formulating programs which
will give the people effective
energy policies. Also, the oil
industry on a company- by-company
basis should be
required to furnish the Executive
Department and the Congress
statistics on refinery capabilities
and production, crude oil and gas
production reserves, land other
dita necessary for sound and
intelligent government planning
and implementation of that
planning.
Finally, Senator Javits pointed
out that cooperation among
energy consuming countries is
vital. It would be very damaging
to the relations among those
nations if they were to go into
competition with one another for
oil supplies.

Javits to the campus. Senator Javits chose Farmingdale to give his
